Chapter 228: The Drunkard Who Can Forge Cannons

The sunlight shone through the gap in the middle of the dilapidated wooden houses on the side of the street, shining on the black water, exuding an indescribable foul smell, making people feel a desire to vomit after smelling it.

I came to a dilapidated house, this house was more dilapidated than the others, and there were doors and windows in the others, but this one took a bottomless water tank and put it in the round hole in the wall as a window, and the door was even more so, and only an empty square hole was left for people to enter and exit, and a few green-skinned sneaky people on the side.

There was an unpleasant smell of alcohol in the room, which made people feel the urge to vomit, and the sour smell of vomit, which made people feel their stomachs churn when they smelled it.

"Lord, don't go any further, this man is a madman!" The white crane on the side said, and with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen black-clothed people were drawn out of the shadows nearby, several of them held shields in front of Xiao Chuan, and the other few quickly ran to both sides, holding strong crossbows and aiming at the door.

The sneaky green skins were all trembling with fright, and they didn't know what the situation was, so they all ran away immediately.

"Hey, who, who" A sloppy middle-aged man rushed out of the room, holding a bird gun in his hand, but the fire rope on the bird gun was not lit at all. scolded and scolded: "Who, get out, believe it or not, I'll kill you with a bang!" ”

His eyes were still half-squinted, obviously he had just woken up, his beard was unkempt, and his clothes were tattered and full of patches after not being cut for a long time.

"Firearms?" Xiao Chuan actually saw a fine bird gun in the other party's hand, the Ming army firearms on the city were not so advanced, this person dared to hide firearms privately, but looking at the dilapidated slums nearby, I am afraid that the government will not find out if they are hiding privately, after all, they don't care about these craftsmen at all.

The bearded middle-aged man was still shouting, two black-clothed men behind him suddenly appeared, kicking his legs to the back of his knees, he immediately knelt on the ground, a cold touch appeared on his neck, the old man immediately woke up, the cold light reflected by the sword blade illuminated his eyes a little painful, and cold sweat flowed out in an instant, only then did he see Xiaochuan and his party clearly, and said angrily: "This son, what do you want to do, it's okay to bring so many family members to my house, believe it or not, I will go to the government to sue you!" ”

Xiao Chuan waved his hand, and the black-clothed men of the blood killing group let go, and the man stood up and looked at Xiao Chuan and his party with a strange look, Xiao Chuan looked at this sloppy man, and he really couldn't believe that such a drunkard could build a Buddha machine? said: "Are you the second yuan of the craftsman in the city?" ”

"If it's fake, what? There are also people pretending to be me, an unlucky man! This Sun Eryuan said, with a sense of loneliness in his tone, yes, who would pretend to be a craftsman? Waiting for the court to collect the silver from you?

"You can make firearms? After Xiao Chuan asked, he felt that such a question was a bit abrupt, but he was really curious, such a drunkard could build a Franc machine?

"Hmph, I started to learn to make firearms at the age of five, my father at the age of seven, I can make bird guns at the age of fifteen, and I can build a franc machine at the age of twenty! If there are enough manpower, the Hongyi cannon is not impossible! ”

Hearing him say this, Xiao Chuan was a little unconvinced, looked at Bai He on the side and nodded, it was strange that such a person had mastered this kind of high-tech technology, as well as a red-clothed cannon, and said: "Are you willing to leave here, I will give you two taels of silver in January!" ”

"You?" This Sun Eryuan saw Xiao Chuan's strangeness, and introduced his identity, this blacksmith knew Xiao Chuan's identity, glanced at the two people who put him down, and said, "I'll just say, the young master of the family in the city has such a powerful foundation, it turns out that you are the general Qin who guards the city."

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "No, my daughter ran away from home, and I have to wait here for him to come back" His eyes revealed worry and anger.

"Your daughter?" Xiao Chuan asked strangely, and Sun Eryuan said: "My daughter had some quarrels with me that day, so she ran away from home!" ”

Xiaochuan is a little strange, there was some quarrel? The girls of the Ming Dynasty already had such a strong rebellious period? always felt that this old man had something to say, and it was another persuasion, but this old man wanted to leave very much, all because he had to wait for his daughter, but he refused to leave Nanyang.

Xiaochuan said anxiously: "You go to Shunchang Fort with me, and when the time comes, I will send someone to wait for your daughter here, I can swear!" "The temptation of artillery is too great, no matter how much it costs, it is worth it, but from the time his daughter left, she was either in the city, since she should have been found by this old man in the city, out of the city, eighty percent of them met Zhang Xianzhong's troops and became hungry people, but it was not easy to say.

The blacksmith looked like he didn't eat oil and salt, but he had to wait for his daughter to come back, and said, "No, my daughter doesn't know you, he can't see me, only when I leave, how can I find her!" ”

Impatient to leave, walking through this area, Xiao Chuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "Eighty percent of his daughter has become a hungry person of Zhang Xianzhong outside the city!" But it was not good to say this to the blacksmith, and he could see the concern in his eyes, and shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Lord, I'm going to sneak into Zhang Xianzhong's hungry camp." Bai He said: "He will not have many people to guard the hungry people, and when the time comes, I will pretend to be a hungry people, and my subordinates will be alert, and it will not go wrong to act carefully."

Hearing his words, Xiao Chuan nodded, this is also the only one who noticed, the temptation of artillery is too great, like when encountering the Qing army in the future, their shield vehicles can only be penetrated by artillery! Said: "Be careful! ”

Bai He promised, his face was still like an iceberg, a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes, and he flashed, and said: "There is one more thing, my lord, Wang Shuang, the commander of the city, will make contact with Zhang Xianzhong in the city tonight!" ”

Wang Shuang? Xiaochuan shook his head, this nest of waste still wants to contact Zhang Xianzhong, does he want to be a thief? This makes me puzzling, how good it is to be a commander, and there are a lot of benefits to following the vassal king.

"There are also some families in the city who are also secretly exposed to these fine works," the white crane said.

Family, a smile flashed in Xiao Chuan's eyes, the family and the commander, together with the thief, or can find another way to make a fortune for themselves, said: "Don't alarm them first!" ”

***************

A courtyard in the middle of the city.

On one side was the patriarch of the family in a blue robe, richly dressed and wearing a crowned hat, and on the other side was a man dressed as a beggar begging for food.

This patriarch is a person who is good friends with the patriarch who was arrested last time, they have business dealings, Xiaochuan arrested the patriarch of the Zhang family, causing his capital chain to break, and the goods cannot be linked, looking at the beggar opposite, his expression is solemn, and he understands the situation at home, and said: "After the eight kings enter the city, how much benefit will they give to the old man?" ”

The beggar showed a mouthful of white teeth, raised three fingers, and said: "Three thousand taels, as long as you open the city gate, Lord Wang, you will have the benefit of three thousand taels, and my righteous army will definitely not rob your Wang family, when the time comes, my righteous army will retreat, who knows the city gate opened by your Wang family, and my righteous army will definitely help you clean it up!" ”

Three thousand taels, this huge amount of money, burning the heart of this patriarch, the rupture of the family's capital chain, made him anxious, or is this a good way to make a fortune? At least he can solve his embarrassment during this period of time, and there is a link in the middle of finding his next home, he swayed and said, "Really won't be discovered?" ”

"Yes, my lord, when the time comes, you will send your family members to open the city gate, and when the time comes, our righteous army will bring these family members," the man made a gesture of wiping his neck and said, "Who knows what you did?" ”

The dim candlelight in the room shone on the patriarch's uncertain face, and he thought of his wife at home, and his daughter, who was not yet a month old, and he raised his head with a hint of anger in his eyes!
